Smartform u0096 SO10 Vs Text Elements for Lang translation

Hi,
I have lot of text elements to be created in smartform, which needs to be translated in different languages. I would like to know the best approach. Is it better to create S010 objects and have them maintained in different language or is it better to maintain as text elements and then get them translated via SE63.
Can some please suggest the best approach with reason for the same?
Thanks,
Vimal

hi
It is better to create in SO10 because if you want those elements in feature for any other purpose you can directly use those text elements.

How to Remove Blank spaces in the text elements for a smartform

Hi All,
Can any one please help me out to remove the blank spaces in the text elements.
We are printing Labels using the Zebra Printer and we have rotated the windows to 90 degrees.
We are able to see out text and barcodes. But the issues is when we are printing the label. We are getting spaces in the Text and in the Text elements fields. I have tried to give &g_name(C)&. But it is not working even i worked with style sheet spaces no luck.
Currently out text and fields are printing like this
s h r i y a n
material number
1111 -001 -000
They should print like
shriyan
1111-001-000
According to the ZEBRA suggestions we are using the font helve.
Plase help us it is very urgent.
Reward point will be given.
Thanks

Hi,
Just use Condense g_name inside the program lines.
Just to see how it behaves put a hard breakpoint.
Break Username. and check the condense statement.
condense <your field> no-gaps.
Create program lines ahead of printing. give the field you want to condense in the input and output parameters of the program lines.
Use condense inside the program lines.
Thanks,

Problem in transporting the text elements for user exit EXIT_SAPLV09A_002

Hi All,
I am facing a problem in transporting the text element (text symbol) for the exit EXIT_SAPLV09A_002. It is implemented and transported but the text elements are not transported and even if I try to delete them and then create them again, on activation it doesn't prompts for TO and it version its shows it as local object. I have tried to manually assign the TO by using limu as id of program and rept as type and SAPLXV09 as the name of the object but still it doesn't allows as an error message comes prompting local object cannot be assigned to TO. Kindly suggest solution this problem.

Sachin

Hello ,
In the Quality after you run the report check in the layout option>display text elements> variables and check what value is displayed for the use exit variable , if it is correct then problem may be in the selection you gave when you run the report if the user exit variable value is wrong , then set a break point in the code and run the report from rsrt and check where the error is.
hope it is clear
assign points if useful

Text Element for Rows

Hi
Is there not a standard text element that I can use in SAPScript to pull the invoice rows into the Main window?
Many thanks
Gerhard

Well if you have copied some standard invoice form then yes. Or if you have copied the standard driver program.
Please give a bit more details what your scenario is and on what you struggle. otherwise there is too much guessing involved which wont really increase answer qualitiy.

In Footer text elements are spliting in smartform

Hi,
In smartform, I am using text elements for printing gross / net totals in the Main window -> Table -> Footer. Now problem I am facing is all the set of elements are breaking from page to page. I want it print in one page with out any page break. How should I do that. Please suggest.
Thanks
Ram

Hi,
In the footer text , in the output options tab ..there is a check box "Page protection".. Check that..
Documentation for "Page protection"
In some cases you may want to avoid that text is divided by a page
break. Therefore, you can protect text sections with a page protection.

Smartform splitting footer text elements

Depending on what system you are in, you may be able to check the Page Protection checkbox in the Table node's Output Options tab. (I'm in 4.6C and this option is not available, but it may be available in your system).
Or you can try checking the No Page Break checkbox in your Line Type definition.

Thanks

Hello,
Please click on "FIELD LIST on/off" or ctrlshiftf4 and then drag and drop the same from the left bar.
First find whether you have declared the value in Global Variables OR in Import/Export Interfaces.
Hope this was helpful.

I am changing a standard smartform. The new requirment is I have to display a new text element for which the value come from a table depending on the input.

Check your text element's output options:
Select your text element... Go to Output Options... in the frame at last "Output Structure" you can see the line and columns. Check if this lines and columns are being used by anyother text element.

Text Elements

Hi,
I have created a report in English language.
I have translated the text elements of Selection screen to German.
Original languge of the program is showing as EN.
But when I login in to Italian language (Say any language where text elements are not translated), text elements of selection screen are displayed in GERMAN Language. But the original language of the report is ENGLISH. As no translation of text elements in italian, Selection screen text elements should be displayed in ENGLISH language.
But here it is displaying as GERMAN Language.
Why this is happening?
Thanks and Regards,
Shravan.

Hello Shravan,
There 2 Possiblities
1. If the text elements on the selection screen are only translated in DE then it will always display it in DE as SAP treats if no lang translation found in that logon lang then it goes to DE Lang
2. If for e.g, if you do not translate it in DE and then Logon in Italian then it will display in EN , I mean Only EN Language Maintained
no translation at all then it will be seen in EN, but if you maintain it in DE then even if you logon in any other lang with no translation in that lang then it will be shown in DE only

The main window of third page will not display the text element

Hey, smartform guru,
I am working on the smartform to print PO data.
The smartform has first page and next page as usual.
I created a third page P_TERMS to print the terms and conditions for PO printout.
I used commend node to assign the page P_TERMS as the "Go to new page" and it did go to the P_TERMS page but the text element will not print in the main window in P_TERMS page.
The text element will print in the secondary window.Since the terams and conditions are 4 pages long, I expected it to print in the main window, so I do not have to define several extra pages to print them.
Any idea?
Thanks in advance!
Fisher Li

Hi Fisher,
Unfortunately, In a smartform, only single main window is continued to all pages even though you can declare windows under each page as main window, but it actually acts as the same window for all pages. It just means that if text from 1st page is overflowed, it will continue to the next page with main window.
Command line to go to next page will create an extra page but since text is not flowed in main window, it won't print the text element you have included in main window on third page.
The solution to your problem as I see is that either you include your terms and conditions in the main window of your first page and just before your text element for T&Cs, use Command to go to third page.
Hope it helps.

Text element assigned to select options not showing

Hi guys,
We have a problem in shaowing the text assigned to the select-options...
When we run the program the text element ssigned to the select options is not showing instead the element name is shown.
The original language is german, and it wont show the english word we appended to as text element for select-options.
example:
AUART insteat od blocked order
How can we show the text elemen when we run the program?
Thanks!

Hi Mark,
Go to the program text elements and select the Selection Texts tab,
There you fill find the select option for AUART and the corresponding text maintained.
You need to maintain translations for this text entered.
Chose Goto (in menu bar) -> Translation
Then maintain translation in English.

Addition of extra Space issue in site studio text element

Hi,
we have implemented WCM for our website. We are in webcenter PS3 version.
At places where we have used text element for titles of various sections,
if we append one extra space and save it, it displays as in front end.
When we remove the space, it does not clear. But if we cut and paste once the word once again it is perfect.
Is there any solution to trim that space when it is displayed at front end. Please suggest.
Regards,
Bhaskar

enclose your text element with strTrimWs.
Removes spaces from the beginning and end of a string.
